Full Stack Engineer, Dashboard Foundation

Who we are

About Stripe

Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Millions of companies—from the world’s largest enterprises to the most ambitious startups—use Stripe to accept payments, grow their revenue, and accelerate new business opportunities. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone’s reach while doing the most important work of your career.

About the team

The Stripe Dashboard is the primary way that merchants manage their Stripe accounts with a web browser. The Dashboard Foundation team is building the backend and frontend platform that powers many parts of the Dashboard. Not only does the team drive new capabilities for merchants, but it also works closely with many internal teams and organizations to make their features possible.

The team is composed of engineers and designers, and often works with data scientists, technical program managers, and others. We’re a mix of remote and on-site, and distributed throughout North America.

We’re looking for a full stack engineer who is passionate about building user facing experiences spanning both the frontend stack and backend platform to solve critical business problems for Stripe Merchants.

What you’ll do

As a full stack engineer on the Dashboard Foundation team, you’ll build platform-level capabilities for the Stripe Dashboard, elevating the experience for every merchant. By creating and expanding these platform capabilities, you’ll make the page-to-page and product-to-product experience in the Dashboard support the ever-changing needs of merchants for years to come. And on top of that, you’ll accelerate other teams at Stripe by enabling them to focus on their unique goals without needing to think about platform-level concerns.

Responsibilities

  • Build software services and platforms that impact millions of Stripe users, whether they’re an end user, developer, or partner
  • Ensure our platforms are reliable, scalable, secure, and extensible
  • Shape future-proof interfaces that are easy to build against
  • Make effective tradeoffs that consider business priorities, user experience, and a sustainable technical foundation
  • Help drive sound technical decision making and lead technical conversations with other teams across Stripe
  • Debug production issues across services and levels of the stack

Who you are

We’re looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.

Minimum requirements

  • 3+ years of full stack engineering experience building end-to-end user solutions
  • Mastery of one or more programming languages such as Ruby, Python, or Go, and frontend experience with React and either Typescript or Javascript
  • Experience debugging complex problems across the whole stack
  • Thrive in a collaborative environment involving engineers, designers, and others to identify high-impact ways of solving problems quickly
  • Excellent oral and written communication

Preferred qualifications

  • You strive for simple solutions and designs over complex ones, and have a good intuition for what will last and scale well
  • Experience building scalable, resilient, and observable systems while understanding UX best practices for the frontend
  • You can put yourself in the shoes of your users to understand their needs and fit that into the bigger picture
  • Experience with building software for fellow developers
  • You stitch together many different services and processes, even if you have not worked with them before

Hybrid work at Stripe

This role is available either in an office or a remote location (typically, 35+ miles or 56+ km from a Stripe office).

Office-assigned Stripes spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for individuals and their teams.

A remote location, in most cases, is defined as being 35 miles (56 kilometers) or more from one of our offices. While you would be welcome to come into the office for team/business meetings, on-sites, meet-ups, and events, our expectation is you would regularly work from home rather than a Stripe office. Stripe does not cover the cost of relocating to a remote location. We encourage you to apply for roles that match the location where you currently or plan to live.

Pay and benefits

The annual salary range for this role in the primary location is C$134,400 - C$258,000. This range may change if you are hired in another location. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings (“OTE”) range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role. This salary range may be inclusive of several career levels at Stripe and will be narrowed during the interview process based on a number of factors, including the candidate’s experience, qualifications, and specific location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the primary location may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process.

Specific benefits and details about what compensation is included in the salary range listed above will vary depending on the applicant’s location and can be discussed in more detail during the interview process. Benefits/additional compensation for this role may include: equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; retirement plans; health benefits; and wellness stipends.
